Neuronal death in glaucoma
Open accessAbstract
Glaucoma is recognized to have its major detrimental effect upon the eye by killing retinal ganglion cells. The process of cell death appears to be initiated at the optic nerve head, though other sites of injury are possible but unsubstantiated. At present the injury at the nerve head seems related to the level of the eye pressure, but its detailed mechanism is as yet unexplained. There is a greater loss of ganglion cells from some areas of the eye, and this feature of glaucoma seems related to the regional structure of the supporting connective tissues of the optic nerve head. Larger retinal ganglion cells have been consistently shown to have somewhat greater susceptibility to injury in glaucoma, though all cells are injured, even early in the process. Ganglion cells die by apoptosis in human and experimental glaucoma, opening several potential areas for future therapies to protect them from dying. Neurotrophin deprivation is one possible cause of cell death and replacement therapy is a potential approach to treatment.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
